A Girl With A Book

Today on Facebook, I saw a quote that made me stop and think. It stated "What terrifies religious extremists like the Taliban are not American tanks or bombs or bullets... It's a girl with a book." This is 100% true. Educated women in many cultures are considered a threat. This is why many girls around this world are not educated. Why not, instead of thinking of those girls as a threat, respect them and work with them to solve the worlds problems. If men realized what potential we have, half the worlds problems would not exist due to the new perspective. Women have to start holding positions of power so they can make a difference, because obviously men aren't cutting it. I can't say this enough, women are the key to the future even if we didn't have a choice in the past. We can change that, we need to change that.
